The main aim of Longevity Switzerland is to act for the advancement of healthy longevity for the entire population through scientific research, technological development, medical treatment, public health and educational measures, advocacy and social activism.
Within this general aim, Longevity Switzerland emphasizes and promotes the amelioration of the deteriorative aging process as the main factor undermining healthy longevity.
Longevity Switzerland facilitates the longevity movement in Switzerland. Its members are instrumental in organizing national conferences on longevity (e.g. the annual International Longevity Day), as well as smaller events and publications throughout the year. We strive to intensify longevity research activism. For example we promote the position paper of the International Society on Aging and Disease (ISOAD, with which our Alliance is also affiliated) on “The Critical Need to Promote Research on Biology of Aging and Aging-related Diseases to Improve Health and Longevity of the Elderly Population.”
